I will be taking my brother on his first deer hunt this year in Central Florida.
We will be stiil hunting from tree stands at our friend's property near Orlando.

I need some suggestions for hot weather hunting camo clothes. I have a lot of cold weather hunting clothes but have no experience with hot weather.

Also, are snakeboots recommended when hunting in Florida? Up north where I usually hunt the temperature is too low to worry about snakes so snakeboots are not used.

thanks.
 
Camo pants and longsleeve t-shirt worked fine for me the other day, it was 85-90. It'll get a little warm but its cheap and effective. Otherwise, I'm sure under armour has some heat gear that works pretty well if you'll be moving around a lot. (I wore it for baseball, football, and rugby)
 
I like army surplus.I wear long sleeves because of mosquitoes and snake chaps are better than snake boots.
 
I wear a bugtamer camo jacket over any old tshirt and thick camo jeans. The bugtamer has a fishnet lining to keep things from biting through kinda like a spacer and the mesh is coarse enough to let air flow through easily so its cool. You can even wear a white tshirt under it and it wont show through. As far as snakes yes I see them often all I wear is plain old 16'' black rubber boots since they are kinda floppy in the uppers they are hard to bite through. I allways wear dark socks since the boots come off once im up anyway.

I live about 20 min. away from Orlando, everytime me and my brothers go hog hunting we always were marine woodland camo. I like it the best especial if your getting in swampy stuff. It blends well in Fla brush and its super cheap, so if you ruin a pair of pants walking through some muck or something you can get another pair cheap. I also find there much more comfortable than the stuff you find at bass pro for 3 times the price. Just what I would do. Heck when my dad goes he wheres blue jeans and a regular old tee shirt
